Special Needs Blogger Weekend Link-Up: Strut your stuff!

Welcome to another Special Needs Blogger Weekend Link-Up, that time of the week.

The idea

Share a favorite post of the week—yours or someone else's.

What to do

Scroll all the way down to the bottom of this post. Where it says "Your name" put the name of your blog followed by the title of your post (or just the name of the post, if there's no room—you get 80 characters).

Like this: Love That Max: Roses Are Red, Violets Are Blue, I Only Love Cars 2

Where it says "Your URL" put the direct link to the post.

Click "Enter." Leave a comment if you want to say more. Go check out some great posts.

Love finding new reads! This week I shared a post I just wrote on Alternate Assessment, you may find it interesting if your child is a participant or you're a teacher. Would love to hear other's experiences, so please comment.

Hi Ellen - the post of note on my blog for this week - http://www.withalittlemoxie.com/2013/03/he-deserved-to-die-he-had-the-temerity-to-be-born-with-down-syndrome.html - is about Robert Saylor.

the NDSS is not pushing for an indpendent investigation. they met with the DOJ along with the NDSC and FRIENDS - but walked out with a great commitment to police training - but without a commitment to investigate his death, which was ruled a homicide.

This is... more than disappointing. We can't let this happen. Robert could be Max, could be Moxie. Could be any of our kids. We need to stand up and demand that an independent investigation be had.

Please help us spread the word. We are assembling a list of contact information and trying to gather all the separate groups under one umbrella so we can get this happening - just shoot me an email if you'd like to be part of it and I'll send it to you and include you.
